Hi, Erica here!
Empowering you is my ultimate motivation and building your confidence through mountain biking is where we'll start.
Across 7 years of professional mountain biking I've earned national titles, advanced technical skills, and countless insider knowledge. Now I'm thrilled to share all of that with you and more!
In 2016 I founded Women in the Mountains to teach in-person mountain biking clinics. While serving students across the western United States is a privilege I take to heart, virtual coaching opens up access to mountain biking for women around the world. It's also an exceptional value-add to in-person coaching because you can easily reference terminology and techniques with a click.
I understand everyone learns in their own way and take a flexible approach so you can benefit from a variety of styles, cues, and angles. It's all about open communication and what clicks for YOU.
Coaching is truly my passion and I've served over 1,800 athletes (of all levels) in skills clinics. The transformations are powerful and I love seeing you thrive, equipped with everything you need to take your mountain biking experience to the next level.
Let's spark some magic!
P.S. Park City, Utah is home. Grateful for my husband, son, and incredible support crew of friends and family.
ALL ABOUT ERICA
“Erica loves all things New Zealand. Her Golden Retriever, Kiwi, is named after the endangered bird of New Zealand and the jersey she created for Women in the Mountains includes a leaf on the shoulder in honor of New Zealand’s Silver Fern.”
“She’s all about Billie Eilish, Beastie Boys, Thom Yorke and true crime podcasts.”
“When she’s not out on the trail, you’ll find Schitt’s Creek on repeat most weekends at home.”
“In her past life, Erica was a climbing guide for Exum Mountaineering and RMI (Rainier Mountaineering Inc.), and before that she was a competitive swimmer!”
LEARN FROM THE BEST
When it comes to mountain biking, a DIY approach can be dangerous. Instead, learn impactful skills and proper safety practices from a proven instructor and award-winning pro who cares deeply about your confidence on the trail.
LEARN AT YOUR OWN PACE
You're in control. Our digital library of tutorials and instructional drills offer you the flexibility to watch and learn when it works for you.
LEARN BY DOING
You can do this. Share your progress by uploading videos of you on your bike. Coach Erica will review and respond with friendly guidance and pointers for you to refine your mountain biking abilities.
“What a wonderful day with Women in the Mountains learning the fundamentals of mountain biking. Erica you really do have the coolest company. I love so much that you are helping women get out into the mountains and learn how capable they are. It's such a powerful thing! I made a bucket list on New Year's Eve that included mountain biking the Rocky Top Trail. We ran out of daylight tonight so we didn't quite finish it, but it was so great to be on the trail with my friend practicing our skills we learned from Erica at her amazing clinic.”
— Becky L.
"Thank you for a wonderful beginners clinic! I learned so much and gained a tremendous amount of confidence. You helped to create a love for this amazing sport and I can’t wait for more rides! A note didn’t seem sufficient to thank you so I shared my experience with everyone in my community. I’ve told my friends about how wonderful your organization is and how amazing your clinics are. You really are the best!"
— Bel
“I am so grateful to this organization for helping me become a confident and safe mountain biker! I’ve gone so many beautiful places on my bike that would’ve never been possible without the skills and encouragement I received. I keep building on that foundation, riding trails I would’ve never considered before."
— Grace.

FAQs
How does the Signature Course work?
Each skill is broken into multiple videos with in-depth explanations. The videos take you step-by-step, from the parking lot to the trail. There are also written summaries of all videos included for you to print or screen shot as reminders when you are on the trail.
There are free videos on Youtube, why should I pay for them here?
You get what you pay for. In the Signature Course, you are experiencing The Women in the Mountains Curriculum that is designed exclusively for adult women. Erica has coached thousands of clients and knows what works! This custom curriculum includes game changing nuances you won’t find anywhere else.
Additionally, you get to work one on one with Erica Tingey, Master Mountain Bike Coach, retired elite professional mountain bike racer, and Certified Life Coach. You’ll have access to 3 times per month, 1:1 Virtual Coaching Sessions.
Would it be better to take a mountain bike clinic in person instead of watching a video?
While each has advantages, our online and in-person coaching modalities compliment each other beautifully and are better together! In-person coaching allows live instruction, immediate feedback on your techniques, and personalized bike adjustments. Online coaching allows you to watch skills videos again and again, and provides ongoing access to the Community Forum, group coaching calls, and one-on-one Virtual Coaching. Most of us learn well with repetition, and it’s often very helpful to go back and review technique details after you’ve had a chance to practice for a few days--you’ll be surprised how much you pick up on the second, third, and fourth viewings! Once you are registered for the online course, you will be given a discount code for in-person clinics that you can redeem within twelve months.
What if I need help with a particular skill?
You will have access to weekly group coaching, 1:1 Virtual Sessions with Erica, the community forum, and video reviews of you on your bike. Know you’ll be supported and encouraged every step of the way!
What kind of mountain bike do I need?
Erica recommends an “all-mountain” or “trail” bike less than 5 years old. A seat dropper will make all the difference in what you are able to learn.
What level of rider is your course for?
Our Signature Course is designed for brand new riders through intermediate riders looking to dial in their skills. Brand new riders can start at the beginning and build each skill over time so they are ready to ride anything! Intermediate riders can hone in their skills and find the gaps in their mastery to uplevel their riding (hello pedal wheelies for desert riding!)
What kind of fitness do I need to have?
As long as you have the desire to learn, we’ve got you covered. This is the exact right place! You can work at your own pace, taking breaks and fitting this practice into your life on your own schedule!
What age is your course meant for?
Coach Erica specializes in coaching adult women. The curriculum is designed for women that want to build their skills, layer by layer, with logic and safety in mind.
I'm not exactly tech savvy. Is this course for me?
Yes! All your lessons are organized in an easy to navigate library where one-click access takes you where you want to be. Your Membership also includes a tutorial that makes it easy to share your progress via video. Questions? Erica is here to help every step of the way. Plus, you have 24-hour access to the Community Forum.
How do I upload a video for feedback?
Once you are inside the course, there will be detailed instructions as well as a video walking you step by step through the video uploading process. You will also be able to email hello@womeninthemountainsonline.com anytime you have technical questions with the course.
How long will it take you to get back to me with coaching on my uploaded videos/riding?
Coaching videos will be returned within 72 hours of uploading.
How do I keep track of where I am in the course?
The course itself will keep track of it for you! You can skip a video or mark it as complete and incomplete depending on whether you are going to rewatch it.
What if I want more than 4 months of access?
At the end of 4 months, you’ll receive information about how to stay in the course accessing the community, videos and group calls.
Do I have to finish the course within 4 months? What if I get an injury and have to stop riding for a while?
This course is designed for you to work at your own pace. If you’re a brand new rider, you may not get to the end of the skills. However, you can watch them and keep them in mind for your future riding. You will also be offered a very reasonable price to continue in the course and community after the first 4 months so you can have year-round access. If you become injured or sick, we can put your membership on hold for up to 30 days.
What if I am super interested but still have a few more questions?
You can book a 20 minutes 1:1 call with Erica. Shedule that by clicking here.
What is your refund policy?
We offer a 14-Day Money Back Guarantee for those who’ve completed the entire course and taken the time to work on each skill, submitting at least one video for coaching and attending at least 2 calls.
